Journal Transition Period Completed

Robert Howarth

Professor in Ecology & Environmental Biology

Cornell University

leopoldleadership.stanford.edu/fellows/howarth

Dr. Robert Howarth chairs the International SCOPE Biofuels Project, is President of the Coastal & Estuarine Research Federation, directs the Agrictural Ecosystems Program at Cornell University, and represents the State of New York on the science and technical advisory committee of the Chesapeake Bay Program. Howarth is also the Founding Editor of the journal "Biogeochemistry" and served as Editor-in-Chief from 1983 to 2004.

Howarth's research program is focused broadly on the following topics: the interaction of climate and land-use as regulators of nutrient flows from large watersheds; the effects of biofuels on the environment; deposition of nitrogen gases, particularly near vehicle and agricultural emission sources; human alteraton of global and regional nitrogen and phosphorus cycles; complex biogeochemical feedbacks that occur in estuaries during eutrophication; and the interaction of biotic, physical and biogeochemical factors as controls on nitrogen fixation.
 

Last summer we began two ambitious transitions for the CERF journal, Estuaries and Coasts: we moved to a new editorial structure in which co- Editors-in-Chief Carlos Duarte and Jim Cloern became responsible for all editorial decisions, and we joined with Springer an international academic publisher to co-publish the journal. I am pleased to report that both transitions are now complete, and the journal is thriving!
